Chamber of Commerce.

Receipts were 391 cars, with 20 sent out.
Duluth took in 167. Prices of milling wheat
at the opening were steady, and hold firm all
through the session. In some cases an ad-
vance over the day before was obtained,
though holders found it hard work. City
millers were the principal buyers, and with
the upward tendency at outside points trade
was active. Shipments of -four were not SO
large. Local stocks of wheat are expected to
show an increase of $50, 900 bu for the week

Flonr-The Market Record says: There is
no lack of demand for flour at the current
prices, and there seem to have been smaller
stocks in store throughout this country and
Europe than had generally been supposed.
1t is certain that very large amount has
gathered, and yet the demand continues to
absorb it all without being satisfied. Tn
doubtedly flour is cheap, in view of the sta
hstically strong position of wheat, and real
1Zlng II, buyers are working with greater con-
fdence. Those that took in large stocks early
have found in the consequent gain enough
encouragement to induce others to pursue
similar policy. The basis of prices is S4.25
